What’s in the box?Speakers do not have universal, industry-standard mounting points. Most small speakers do have either a threaded mounting hole, or a keyhole style mounting hole. The EAK80B-A, and EAK85B-A include hardware to accommodate common types of mounting holes. Please check your speaker to verify it can utilize one of these hardware configurations. |
Center of GravityThe EAK80B-A and EAK85B-A utilize a “goose-neck” design for the central column. This design centers most of the speakers weight over the base of the speaker stand for greater stability, and safety. |
Aesthetic DetailsEAK80B-A includes a cosmetic cover for the top mounting head. This conceals the mounting hardware for a more aesthetically pleasing installation. PLEASE NOTE: EAK85B-A does not include the cosmetic cover. |

Sturdy
Easy to assemble and adjust. As other have said the Vizio plug won’t fit thru the pipe, but I was perfectly aware of that when I bought them. The price was on point for white pole mounts and very stable on laminant once properly tightened.

Good stands, little shaky on carpet, great for Vizio rear surrounds

Decent…did what I needed.
Overall for the price and quality. These did what I needed for my situation. The holes on my Samsung speakers we just a smidge small for the screws provided, but I was able to make it work. Hardest park was getting the wires through the metal pole casing. For some reason when it hit the bends in the poles it would keep getting caught. Eventually was able to get it to work, but it was a tad frustrating that the wires didn’t smoothly pass through the poles. Solid construction and good option for the money.

Gets your speakers in the right position
OK, It’s a bit of a challenge to get the speaker wire through the tube but you only have to do that once. My speakers are pretty light weight to the glass base is probably overkill for keeping the stand stable but I’d rather have that than worry about them being tipped over. Glad I bought them and would recommend.

Not good, but the ”best” option for a white stand
Unfortunately the options for a white satellite stand are very limited. There are a few more options for bigger stands, but didn’t fit my use case for satellite surrounds.The weight rating is completely inaccurate as my 6-7 lb speakers sag and bend on the bottom towards the pole. I made it work with placing a rubber piece in between the bottom of the speaker and the pole. These stands are definitely made for very basic 1-2 lb satellite speakers only.The base is too light which is not stable enough to warrant confidence. Again, seems to be designed for only 1-2 lb basic satellites. The stick on silicone feet are also not very thoughtful and doesn’t make full contact with the floor since the base has a substantial curve.The pole attaches to the base with 2 screw on washers with ridges for grip. One goes on the top side and one on the bottom. This design is bad because it is too hard to get it fully tight with the top screw washer. It is awkward to have to hold both with pliers and you will scrape the paint for sure.Unfortunately this is the best option for a smaller white speaker stand, but if I had to do it over I would go with my initial inkling of buying a quality black stand and spray painting it white.

Great stand, but design could be more accommodating
The product is sturdy and made of good material. I had a similar issue as others where the stand wasn’t designed for the speaker size such as mine (Sony SA-RS5). I had to go to Home Depot and buy a bracket and bend it to make it work. I still need to adjust the spacing of the speaker because they point slightly down but they work well as is. If your speakers aren’t small like those square satellite speakers…. Then you might also run into the same issue.

Works with Vizio V series satellite speakers
The stands work. They were easy to put together. The satellite speakers for my Vizio V series soundbar setup are secure on them.The 1 gripe I have is it says you can hide your speaker wire through the stand, which if you had normal speaker wire with no analog plug on the end, sure you could. But a analog plug does not fit through the pipe forcing you to wrap the speaker wire around the stand itself, or use some straps to hold them onto the pipes.But they work and are cheap so.. Im satisfied for the price.4 stars purely for functionality and price. But Im giving the overall product 3 stars because you cant fit a analog plug through them.
